Mine constantly jumps a coupe hundred up and down, don't know what's wrong.
Also sometimes it hovers at 1500 (up and down a cuple hundred) few lights down the road it will be around 1100 and also jumping up and down a few hundred RPMs.
Any ideas?

the owners manual says 1200 plus or minus 100rpm



but it also says that you should shift into second around 13mph.... and be in 6th at like 55mph, so take it with a grain of salt

An idle that wanders that much usually indicates a slightly lean idle so a half turn richer on the mixture screws should settle it down.

My bike bounces +- 100 rpm which I think is pretty normal, 400 rpm is not normal though.
